We are a group of 4 students from Hwa Chong Institution, carry out this Citibank-YMCA Youth For Causes project, heART to raise funds for our beneficiary through art workshops/competitions and sales of unique shopping bags specially designed by our beneficiary kids.
AIMS
Our project seeks to raise awareness of the plight of children with terminal cancer and genetic blood diseases, and endeavour to raise funds for the BMT programme through sales of merchandise designed by the children under the programme. Through the workshops and competitions conducted, we also help enrich their lives and allow them to express their creative artistic potential.
HIGHLIGHTS
- Art workshop cum competition for the children from "BMT 4 Kids", primary schools and community centres. Children will learn to design and paint their own artworks onto recyclable shoppings bags. Winning bag designs will be selected and mass printed for sales nationwide.
-World Record breaking attempt to create largest "mosaic" of shopping bags to form one COOL design. Childrens' artwork done during the workshop will be pieced together to form a huge mosaic to be exhibited around Singapore at our sales booth and help raise awareness of these childrens' potential in society.
